Cool God speed big disc conversion

Have been talking to Ian at Godspeed with regards to his big disc conversion for Imprezta four pots .

Kit includes

We can offer this 335mm disc kit which retains the standard 4 pot calipers, which are a very good powerful caliper. The kit includes caliper spacers which widen the caliper to fit the thicker disc, caliper mounting brackets which bring the caliper out from the hub assembly which enables the fitting of the bigger disc, and larger than average pads which take advantage of the wider swept area on the disc.

The discs can either be supplied grooved, drilled or grooved and drilled. Due to the heat that is generated on the track, if you are going to take part in track days, we would recommend the grooved only.

The pads supplied can be either Mintex 1144 or Ferodo DS2500.



Price normally £625.00



If we can get 5 people then the price will be £575
10 people then the price will be £550


Please let me know of your interest below

Been looking at this set-up for a while now, a bargain at the normal price, but even better at this group-buy price!

Put me down for the drilled only.

Which pads are best for fast road use?

As Mark A, can you ask Ian if he'll do a deal on rear discs, rear pads and replacement front pads.

I already have Ian's 335mm kit on the front and his rear discs/pads. Think rears and front pads needs replacing.

I'm potentially interested in the 335 kit for existing 4-pots as it's a mod I want to do but would need to find a price without pads or braided hoses... (just to be awkward )

Apple: No braided with the Subaru 335mm conversion .... I have just made enquiries about these options.

When I get the brembos I'll have 4-pots with braided hose for sale & discs/pads that have done about 1K miles.

I asked that because I've already got the stainless braided hoses and may have a source for the correct sized pads with a different compound on them rather than M1144 / DS2500.

Tony,
Ive got a 1999 RB5 with 4 pot calipers and the standard RB5 17" speedline wheels.

Will these 335mm monsters fit inder my wheel without any extra mods??

Also, can you get a price on the kit with the addition of braided hoses for the front AND rear.

Thanks

Whens the closing date for this group buy, as I need to check my funds! I would probably be interested in the Brembo setup (complete kit).
